    We had a wonderful experience at The Wolseley! I don’t usually write reviews, but the restaurant was very busy and we had a very tight time window to make the theatre. Our waiter did a fantastic job to bring us our supper and dessert with plenty of time to spare, and it was all delicious, especially the fish cakes and cheesecake. Thank you, we’ll be back!

    Really lovely bistro. We had the working lunch last saturday. Just amazing value at £45 for 3 courses. We took the £59 per head which included a glass of champers, coffee and sweets after. The first course of venison ragu with gnocchi. The meat and flavour was intense and moreosh The main was the belly pork with roscoff onion The food was wonderful. Meaty jus and crackling to die for Dessert was a modern interpretation of an apple crumble - not too sweet, not too sharp. Just right
